Hello, my name is Andrew, I'm from Romania, I'm 21. This spring, on 29th of April I found a fire salamander larva, i took care of it until it has turned into a nice juvenile, i have a terrarium for it filled with moss and hiding places, but my question is.. What should I do when the winter comes?Is it ok to keep it inside, in its terrarium and not feed it? will it survive like this? I don't want to put his life in danger by making a wrong choice.. I heard if you don't let it "hibernate" it will affect its life.. Help! :D

    with axolotls would I basically have to keep buying and buying new axolotls to prevent inbred breeding which costs a lot of money??

    Not necessarily but if you’re wanting to continue to grow your breeding capacity then yes. Breeding axolotls isn’t a cheap hobby nor is it a get rich quick scheme. It costs a lot of money and time and deditcation

    Would Chinese fire belly newts be more or less inclined towards an aquatic eft set up versus Japanese . I'm raising them and have abandoned the terrarium at about 5 months old and switched to the aquatic setups you describe. I'm wondering if I could do this as soon as they morph?
